Impact modeling boosts service mapping efficiency with great technical support
The biggest benefit in my area is impact modeling. Impact modeling helps to map a service that has different applications in it, with those applications having interdependencies with each other. When changes, incidents, problems, and so on occur, it will show exactly where the issue is, helping you to find the root cause much faster. This helps all organizations reduce their mean time to resolution.

Søren Tøpholm - PeerSpot reviewer
It is very easy to use, maintain and deploy
There are situations all the time in my company where the Snow License Manager effectively identifies over-licensing of software, leading to cost savings. It is an effective solution. In Snow License Manager, the most beneficial feature for maintaining compliance revolves around the area of compliance overview. With the product, my company is able to manage all sources of reports on our organization's environment. The reporting analytics feature has aided in our company's decision-making processes. The automated discovery feature in the tool is very good. In my company, I don't know how I would manage if the tool was not available to help me with asset management. The product is easy to maintain. Snow License Manager supports business in contract negotiations by basically giving us all the data to clarify our company's position. I recommend the solution to others. It is very easy to use, maintain, and deploy. I rate the tool an eight out of ten.

Quotes from Members

We asked business professionals to review the solutions they use. Here are some excerpts of what they said:
 

Pros

"The solution helps us manage, escalate, and solve incidents."
"The solution helps to manage the operational flow in our organization."
"You can develop plugins in different languages, and the workflows can be easily developed depending on the user's needs."
"The tool's automation features are fully capable, especially for IT automation. The asset management capabilities meet expectations."
"The solution's technical support is good."
"The incident management console is available out of the box."
"It will simplify handling tasks by providing shortcuts and automating the generation of requests and tickets, including their categorization."
"The service management features are beneficial – very good."
More BMC Remedy pros
"The discovery is excellent. It is agent-based, and it can also operate without one as long as there is an inventory source, such as SCCM. It may take data from the SCCM and normalize it to provide a very clear idea of what the hardware is, what software is running on it, what versions of that software are available, when is the end-of-life, and when they are no longer supported. All of that information is available."
"The product's initial setup phase is very easy."
 

Cons

"BMC Remedy could be improved by incorporating analytics and artificial intelligence (AI) modules."
"If we migrate to the cloud, the Software as a Service version's price is very high. The return on investment is very small in our case."
"The solution is very expensive."
"The desktop technicians face some challenges with the solution."
"The UI is quite outdated."
"The interface is obsolete."
"The initial setup of BMC Remedy Asset Management was complex."
"The product's scalability is one area with certain shortcomings that need to be considered for improvement."
More BMC Remedy cons
"The dashboards provided by the solution have certain shortcomings, making it in areas where improvements are required."
"The support is an area that can be improved. As resellers, we are doing the first-level support because we have trained certified engineers, and we provide support. Because we are in India and they do not have a support center in India, the turnaround time for tickets could be improved. We have to rely on Australia for support."
 

Pricing and Cost Advice

"BMC Remedy is worth its price."
"I find the pricing to be reasonable."
"The licensing model of BMC Remedy Asset Management should improve. It is expensive and it is difficult to understand."
"With the product, you can either go for a yearly or a perpetual licensing model."
"The product is costly. On one to ten points, where one is cheap and ten is expensive, I rate the product's price as nine."
"Pricing is expensive compared to lower-end solutions, but it's on par with ServiceNow."
"It is an expensive tool."
"The pricing is on the expensive side."
More BMC Remedy pricing and cost advice
"I rate the product price as a four on a scale of one to ten, where one is low, and ten is high."
"I would rate the pricing a seven or eight out of ten. It is not a cheap solution, but it provides good value for money."
